The incredible survival story of the Dog maggie - Science Blog (October 2019)

Occasionally we hear stories of about animals who manage to survive obstacles and particularly serious injuries.

Science Hub Blog, October, 2019.

As is the case with Maggie - a dog that gives us such a huge inspiration thanks to a sweet smile, blind eyes and one ear.

Maggie's powerful and exciting story began when she was found in a box in Lebanon in harsh conditions while beaten and shot, which caused her to lose one of her ears and her eyesight.

The person who found her posted on a social network asking for help to find the poor dog a warm home, and his publication was answered by a 25-year-old London girl.She adopted the dog, Asking the Wild At Heart Foundation to help Maggie get the treatments she needed to recover, and now you can find out more about Maggie and see her pictures.

Life is beautiful - so smile!

Have fun and take the time on the bed.

Maggie the dog has opened an Instagram page where she records her life, and over time she has been able to pull in some 248,000 followers.

What role do viruses play in cancer?Virus that attacks human cancer cells can distinguishes Healthy cells.Viruses are usually supposed to worry us, but this is not the case with inoculate viruses. those that infect cancer cells and kill them, ignoring healthy cells. So it is no wonder that the search for such viruses attracts many researchers.

What is the connection between viruses and cancer?The Seneca Valley virus.This virus also known as Senecavirus affects pigs and cows. In recent years it has been found that the virus attacks human cancer cells.

The ability to identify tumors and ignore normal cells tested in two trials. The first in relapsed solid tumors in children and the second in lung carcinoma.

Experiments also found that the immune system was removing the virus from the body. Thus preventing it from completing its anticancer action.Ongoing research to understand how the Seneca Valley virus may be used for cancer treatments.Researchers at the University of Otago in New Zeal…

E-TAC water-splitting technology improves the energy efficiency of the hydrogen production process to an unprecedented peak, 98.7%, and significantly reduces carbon dioxide emissions. The development-based H2Pro company will translate it into a commercial applicationClean, cheap and safe for hydrogen production. This technology significantly enhances the efficiency of hydrogen production - from around 75% by today's methods to unprecedented energy efficiency of 98.7%.

WHO decides not to declare the international emergency due to the Wuhan coronavirus.While the World Health Organization (WHO) decides whether to declare the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak an international emergency, after it has claimed 17 victims so far, Chinese authorities have decreed quarantine in three cities and asked 20 million citizens not to leave their cities except for "special reasons" in an attempt to contain the virus.

Other security measures have also been implemented, such as the closure of public transport and controls at airports.
The source of the infection is suspected to be a food market in Wuhan, a mega-city of 11 million people located in central China.
The market was closed on 1 January and disinfection measures were implemented, making it difficult to trace the origin of the infection, i.e. which animal caused the infection.
Dead and live animals, wild and domestic, including marmots, bi…

melanoma cells // Photo: Getty Images Researchers at Tel Aviv University led by Prof. Neta Erez, and Dr. Hila Doron and research student Malak Amer, found that metastases of violent skin cancer (melanoma) reach the brain by immune system "fraud". They "impersonate" the cells of the immune system itself, which are recruited to combat simulated tissue damage in the brain. The researchers have developed a method to neutralize the mechanism of deception that may prevent metastasis in melanoma patients in the future. The research (link to the study), was carried out in collaboration with Prof. Ronit Satchi-Fainaro, head of the Cancer and Nanotechnology Research Laboratory, at Tel Aviv University.

"Melanoma skin cancer is known to be a violent and deadly disease, mainly because it sends metastases to vital organs in the body, and in many cases to the brain," says Professor Erez. "We wanted to find out how cancer cells reach brain defenses and penetrate them t…

A study states that air improvement is an exaggeration and that it would take up to 1,000 plants per square metre for its effect to be felt.

That plants are an excellent decorative element is something no one doubts. However, many give these indoor gardens the power to regenerate the air. But does this ability have a real basis?
According to a new study by researchers at the University of Drexel, in reality this is simply an exaggeration, as opening a window would be much more useful for cleaning the room than having one of these pot plants.
"This has been a common mistake for some time. Plants are great, but they don't really clean the air in a room fast enough to have an effect on air quality in a home or office."
Explains Michael Waring, lead author of the article published in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology and professor of architectural and environmental engineering at the Drexel School of Engineering.
Waring and one of his doctoral…
